Water damage from Flooding is an emergency and unfortunately common disaster for residential and commercial properties where water damage is imminent. Water can damage anything that gets in touch with, like, carpets, walls, floors, ceilings, furniture, other belongings, and the property itself, etc.…. where it causes secondary water, the damage is even worse if it does not get under control immediately and professionally. No one knows when it happens and we have absolutely no control over floods, or how much damage they can do. But, what we can do, is to act as quickly as possible when a flood happens, to prevent further damage, and mold formation, and to minimize cost.
Some people think wrongly that they can dry the water in any way possible with limited knowledge and leave it as it is to dry. Soon after they will start smelling bad odor in water-damaged areas and mold will take over. When water starts to move where it is not supposed to be, on walls, and floors, it will continue to move around and find its way down toward the basement as far as it can move, then it will wet and moist all the routes that took, some we can see, some we cannot, behind walls and so on, which only professional water damage technician can measure with moisture checks and a special camera.

Water damage will require emergency water extraction from the water-damaged areas. This is usually done with large and strong water extraction machines that suck all the water. This is, obviously, the first step of flood restoration. It is a dangerous step because there is standing water, and the electricity is usually still on. You will need to call your utility service provider to get it turned off before the water is extracted. After removing all of the water, the deep dehumidification process begins with setting up numbers of Air movers and dehumidifiers to dry the areas in 3-4 days, Only professional water damage restoration technicians know, how many and where this equipment will be set up for maximum drying process result.
In some cases, the professional restoration people might remove the baseboards, and cut the wet walls for about 2 feet, or even make some holes in walls, floors, or ceiling, remove flooring, remove wet underpaid (dispose of it, since will not be usable, therefore new underpaid will be installed after drying process done) and carpet ( carpet can be cleaned and disinfected)depending on the water damage situation, make sure this drying equipment dry behind the walls and baseboards. All these processes are according to IICRC guidelines and it is approved by the insurance companies.
